You and @Jack are gentlemen with impeccable taste.

I'm not sure it's going to work. Their new material is written in drop G. I can't get my 5 string that low without the first seven frets on the bottom string all sounding the same. I think it needs an extra long multiscale and I'm not sure I want to invest £1000+ in a Spector Dimension or Dingwall (cheaper multiscales are a bit shorter) without knowing it'll work out.

I choose what bass I play 🙂 Jazz bass compared to p-bass? Just crank the gain a bit and enjoy the versatility.

Do that blind test with similar strings and come back to tell us your findings.

I would have gladly but the order went from “available in 2-5 days” to “in stock within 10-13 weeks”, so I’ve cancelled it. They also decreased the price as soon as they went out of stock. Seems like the dirty tactics are still rife almost ten years since I got out! I might order elsewhere at a later date, but for now I’ve just used my discount on an alternative set. -

My formative music years began in the early 70s, through Radio1 and Top of The Pops. I personally think the quality of the ‘pop’ music (i.e. 45s heard on the radio and seen on a Thursday night on the telly) were as high as in any era. Many years later artists like Bowie, Roxy, Mott the Hoople etc. are viewed as seminal and influential acts, but to me and my mates at the time, they were the just some of the pop stars of the day. Other than Slade Alive and the first Roxy album, all I’d heard at that point were singles. So there’d be the aforementioned, along with the likes of Alice Cooper, T Rex, Sweet, The Faces regularly appearing on the telly on a Thursday evening. It was all we knew, so felt the norm. And then it would be discussed next day at school, in some detail! This is not to denigrate or dismiss other eras (and most folk probably feel their generation was/is the best) but I feel blessed that I grew up when I did, for many reasons, but especially for my first steps into music. That’s a long-winded way of saying “I agree”!

Another short but strangely satisfying chart, this is Mo Foster's bass part to the tune 'Bijou Pleasurette' from the eponymous 1980 album, 'The Michael Schenker Group'. https://bilbosbassbites.co.uk/bijou-pleasurette-michael-schenker-group/

If you haven't tried already, I'd recommend listing on TheFretboard UK forum (it's free) - Polite community and several of the longstanding members have S2s as their No. 1. -
Bought this a few weeks ago for a gig I had at new year as a last minute replacement for my fuzz that died. Since got my usual fuzz repaired so this isn’t needed. Pretty much brand new except Velcro on the back. Price includes shipping in the UK, cheers!-

£300, Will pm you! -
Will be in SW Surrey for a few days at the end of the month so could bring it up with me if anyone is interested. -
Still available, possible trades with cash either way for a small form factor reverb pedal. Hit me up with what you’ve got. -
Ditto.... I just keep looking at this and remembering what I was like drooling over this exact model 25yrs ago. It's simply stunning (and it's practically being given away at that price). -
I have a Squier jazz, and it has a Fender neck and it's had a pro setup and I like it a lot. But I had a go of my teachers Fender jazz and it was just that little bit better. Hard to put my finger on what exactly, but I preferred it to my bass. Now, whether that was just that I knew it was a real Fender, and whether I'd have felt the same in a blind test, who knows?

Wonderful story @Old Man Riva! Don't you sometimes wish you could go back to those days when your mind hadn't been brainwashed by the tyranny of Spotify playlists and the FM Radio driven genre-ification (if there is such a word) of music? Or so overloaded with years and years of hearing new bands and artists, that everthing sounds like something else...? ...Back to that time when your mind could be blown away by a new startling, daring and creative band like Roxy were...? I really miss that.

As above, and at the risk of inciting a hate riot, I don't believe you'll experience any form of epiphany even if you pick up a prime 50s/early 60s Fender bass. You're probably even in a minority by not being concerned with it. I've been through more 60s Jazz Basses than I and my bank balance care to admit. I'm now left with two 70s JBs and one 70s Stingray that really speak to me. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

A very clean and clinical Precision, maybe. Less nasal mids and more even. The fingerboard is less radial too, very flat and even response all the way up the board.
